Update on the Delisting of Mauritius from European Union List of High-Risk Third Countries
24 Dec 2021
At the meeting of the European Commission College of Commissioners held on 22 December 2021, the updating of the European Commission’s AML/CFT list was discussed.
The updated AML/CFT list will, amongst others, delist Mauritius from the list of High-Risk Third Countries of the European Union.
Following adoption by the European Commission, the list will be submitted for scrutiny by the European Council and the European Parliament. Once this stage is passed, the delisting of Mauritius will be formalised by the publication of the updated list of High-Risk Third Countries of the European Union.
